Updating erases all settings #95

Closed GoogleCodeExporter closed 9 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 9 years ago 
Does any mechanism exist to update to a new release without having to 
manually input all configuration information again, including reading in 
keys, etc.?  So far I've been wiped out completely every time, as far as 
the existing configuration is concerned.

Are you uninstalling and then reinstalling? That will wipe out your settings for
sure. However, upgrading over a previous version should work fine.

If you are upgrading and losing things, let me know the versions.

Well, you can't install normally since you'll get ALREADY_EXISTS.
adb install -r gets a FAILED_INCONSISTENT_CERTIFICATES error...

I also found it impossible to remove connectbot.org with the uninstall -k (or 
just 
plain uninstall) commands.  Failure each time.  I finally went in root and rm'd 
the 
apk package itself from /data/app.  But now I get "upgrade incompatible" errors 
when 
I try a fresh install of the newly built SSH.apk ...

There are instructions on how to remove the old certificate versions on the
http://connectbot.org/ main page. You might have to install an old version just 
to
uninstall it to get rid of those certificate problems.

Once you're out of those old certificate problems, you should be able to upgrade
without losing settings.
